Wreaths Across America, a nonprofit organization founded in 1992, began with a single act of gratitude and has grown into a nationwide movement. Its mission is simple, yet powerful: remember the fallen, honor those who serve, and teach future generations the value of freedom. Each December, National Wreaths Across America Day brings together millions of volunteers to place remembrance wreaths on veteransβ graves at military cemeteries, memorials, and historic sites.
This year, the event took place on Saturday, December 14, 2024, when over three million wreaths were placed to ensure no veteran was forgotten. ΜΗΠΔ΄«Γ½ was honored to support this initiative, with our associates and their families volunteering in local wreath-laying ceremonies. By remembering, honoring, and teaching, we paid tribute to the sacrifices of our veterans, reflecting our dedication to those who have served and ensuring their stories inspire future generations to value and protect the freedoms they defended.

"Itβs always a humbling experience to visit here, but this event was especially meaningful," Stefanik shared. "Iβm honored to work for a company that truly values and supports our veterans and service members."
The woman leaders of today spent time preparing the leaders of tomorrow. The ΜΗΠΔ΄«Γ½ Womenβs Network ( and employees) hosted the on Saturday at the companyβs Reading, Pennsylvania, global headquarters.
ΜΗΠΔ΄«Γ½βs workshop was a precursor to GSEPβs yearly in April. The event honors distinguished local women. The unique component is that the girls work to produce a leadership program from start to finish.
